What a joy to photograph these 2! José’s family came all the way from Portugal to celebrate with the South Africans and what a day it was. Laughter, beauty, joy, good food, family + friends! Thank you SO much Alecia + José that I could document your wedding. (And laugh with you!) Blessings for your marriage and enjoy the memories of your day. <3

Joy, peace, faith, love. Words you often hear at weddings. And then, sometimes you can FEEL them in the atmosphere and SEE them with your own eyes. Like at this very special wedding of Willie and Hannah.

Thank you Willie + Hannah. What a joy to document so much beauty in one day. Thank you for honoring God, your parents and respecting each other. Enjoy your images and memories of an unforgettable day!

I photographed Annelize’s portraits for her matric farewell, back when I was working at a Kodak shop / school photo company. I never knew I would call her a friend in the years to come! What a joy to photograph her in this stage of her life. I kind of begged her to do a collaboration: She would bring herself and her baby bump and I get to do a mini shoot. What an AMAZING bonus when Found Collection also joined in with their always exquisite pieces.

Did I ever mention that I absolutely love photographing the “raw” and “real”?
This is from a recent visit to my brother and his family in Lutzville, West Coast. These kids (and of course their mom and dad!) are so dear to me. I didn’t have my gear with me (when will i LEARN!?) but used my mom’s Canon EOS 550D to capture some of these. I would love to still do a proper documentary on a full day some time. But for now, I share a tiny bit the morning routine and these little humans I love so dearly…

WHAT a wedding! It had such an array of emotions: happy tears, memory tears, laughter, friends cheering them on, supportive family and a couple with so much love and respect for each other. DANKIE Jacques en Natalie! Julle is troopers en so lekker om julle mooi harte vir dies om julle te sien. GENIET julle foto’s!
